RESEARCH / WORK EXPERIENCE

GRADUATE RESEARCH ASSISTANT, School of Engineering, University of Vermont, Burlington, VT * 2005-2012

Charged with performing broad range of highly technical engineering operations related to evaluation of concrete bridge decks as well as control of small satellites. Performed data migration, post processing, and analysis of NDE methods, as well as ultra-wide band ground penetrating radar application on concrete bridge decks.

Selected Accomplishments

* Data Fusion Method for Nondestructive Evaluation of Concrete Bridge Deck - Developed 1st recordable use of data fusion method for nondestructive evaluation methods to measure accurate condition of bridge decks, allowing for use of optimal repair plans and decreasing cost of repairs and rehabilitation.

* Micro-electro-mechanical System (MEMS) Gyros for Use in Controlling Orientation of Small Satellites - Filed patent disclosure.

* Multi-sensor Periodic NDE on Concrete Bridge Deck - Introduced discrete Choquet integral as data fusion algorism-1st time ever used in assessing concrete bridge decking-without benefit of any previously documented data fusion algorisms or mathematical theories / models. Created successful mathematical theory and model that was successfully tested, recreated, refined, optimized, and applied to bridge decking, providing accurate condition assessment comparable with physical testing data.

* Recognized for outstanding research and conference / journal paper creation performance by receiving financial support for 6 consecutive years.

* Corrosion study for concrete bridge deck - published 6 conference / journal paper on this topic.
